How long before we see a demand for a book burning?

[Jesus is my Superhero]

I'm not sure this is even the right place for this topic, but it is an end time event I do think.

With the new reset establishing a more coordinated effort internationally, and the obvious animosity towards Christianity because, as always, the Evil One manipulates the unconverted to continual violence, hatred and recently much madness within a segment of society:
How long before the demand for the amassing of all Christian literature, especially all known copies of the Bible for community book burnings throughout the literate world?

According to Fahrenheit 451, one essential change of cognition is to replace the common day fireman image with a hose with water in it, with a new type of fireman who holds a flamethrower that burns books.

The article has a couple of quotes from that book!
Watching how people are reacting to the vaccine controversy, I can imagine a similar issue can arise once their focus is more upon those hateful Christians.

"Let us burn there Literature! Lets make it happen worldwide!"

Well, it would work out until all religious books are slated for burning.

Christians tend to turn the other cheek (In theory)

But other religions don't have that as a precept.

A book burning is a prelude to violence. At the time of the book burning, the people being attacked by the burning have already been classified as other, less than human, and the next step is destruction. I firmly believe if Christians witness an event like this, severe persecution, meaning bloodletting, is very near.

Good question. Christians may want to download Bibles and keep copies on USB sticks. They are easier to hide than books. Easier to copy and distribute as well.

 

[Jesus is my Superhero]

Not having access to a bible, Christians will have to rely more on the Holy Spirit bringing verses back to mind.
Memory sticks will work well until we are pushed into shanty towns without any power. But this may be just my imagination starting to run wild. A black market in small power generators will develop with sympathizers perhaps.

A book burning these days would be more of a quiet "digital' burning. Books, articles, Christian sites, blogs, etc. being deleted and people being deplatformed is what a book burning looks like today. Physical books aren't as big of a thing as they used to be. But internet access to biblical information, communication with others, and even Christian music or sermons can be limited or just deleted worldwide with a few keystrokes, and that would be equal to a forest-sized bonfire of books being burned. However, it wouldn't be as dramatic-looking as an actual physical burning.

Perhaps your version would happen first, progressing, yes that word - - to a physical event being held in cities across the world. Cities such as Portland, Seattle, London, where the outrage culture dominates.

It won't be a physical book burning at first but you'll find bible apps being taken off of app stores and it won't be sold at most bookstores anymore first, most likely due to what's seen as anti-LGBT discrimination.
We've already started seeing Christian worldviews being deplatformed from social media like youtube, but I expect we're still a few years away from more aggressive persecution.
actual book burnings? 2025 or 2023 at the earliest.

First they came for my hard drive, and nobody did anything. Then they came for my memory sticks and nobody did anything. Then they came for my literature, and nobody did anything. Now finally I hear an unexpected knock on my door at 4a.m. and there is nothing remaining except the testimony of Jesus Christ in me.

I don't know about the whole literate world or if we should think it's only Christian literature that might be targeted, but it's coming.

The totalitarians have thrown off the restraints that previously protected our freedoms, but since nothing much happened to them when they took the first steps in that direction, the likelihood is that they will not be hesitant to take the next steps.

are there books to burn?

Borders bookstore left our area years ago...2011?
local Christian bookstore also went out of business

we spent a lot of time in both & miss bookstores

I expect to see a huge falling away when Christians are labeled a Hate group. We'll be chased underground.

I own a few bibles too. The community confiscation and book burning will be a kind of bonding event.
You'll see pics on social media of people taking selfies in front of a large bonfire.

Certainly. I too regret the passing of bookstores, just like I regret the passing of malls, newspapers, and so much more. Still in all, books are published and can be purchased, if only by mail. So I doubt that there will be literal book burnings with bonfires, but already there are developments in that direction.

It's already 'yesterday's news' to note that schools and libraries censor even the great classics if some far left activists demand their removal. But beyond that, publishers are under pressure from radicals not to publish works by conservative authors, thus requiring them to turn to smaller and less well known publishers in order to get their works into print. Rating services don't place books that they dislike for political reasons on their lists of best-sellers, thereby denying them some of the sales and readership that they deserve. And websites that include reviews from readers don't want conservative works to be backed up by too many favorable responses, so the format gets changed to one in which only equal numbers of "sample" reviews from pro and con reviewers are shown.

Gradually, gradually, it's coming and there's no need for bonfires.

It'll be like a Burning Man concert out in the desert! Full hedonism on display! There will be bragging rights for how many assaults and other felonious acts were committed. Medals will be awarded the following month for meritorious service to the State.

Sort of like the occupant of the White House giving medals to the four US Capitol policemen who were hand picked to tell the prosecutors on that January 6 Congressional committee what they wanted to hear?

 

[Jesus is my Superhero]

Exactly. The subtle digital book burning you describe is a commonsense approach only if the powers that be don't want to send a message about who is in charge and who to fear. These leftists can't help themselves. The past century is the playbook, but with better tech.

we still got at least 1 Christian bookstore in the town I live in now and my hometown too, but bookstores in general have been kinda driven out of business by Amazon except for large chains like Barnes and Noble
I have to admit I read most of my books on a tablet now myself, since it's easier to adjust the text size and backlighting, and being able to store a whole library on one lightweight device is nice, and not having to break the spine of a book reading it.
Though I did make sure to pick up a physical King James Bible last year after I started seeing "right wing" voices and platforms (Parler losing its servers) getting deplatformed and shutdown, I figured they're going to come for the bible sooner rather than later, and that means bible apps won't work anymore, and I only have an NIV in a box somewhere.
being in an IFB Church that is KJV only.. well, I needed to make sure I have one on hand.
I still read my King James electronically rather than the physical, but I have the physical as a backup just in case.
